Waiter
To dream of a waiter or waitress represents an aspect of your personality that is obligated to provide service, responsiveness, or attentiveness to the needs and expectations of others. Catering to others' needs or helping when asked without getting time off, like it's your job. Feeling responsible for accommodating, pleasing, or meeting demands in a timely and acceptable manner.
Negatively, dreaming about a waiter may represent a lack of respect for someone who is serving your needs or assisting you. Frustration with constantly catering to others. Feeling taken for granted, overextended, or undervalued. Feeling stuck in a role where you are expected to serve, wait, or be patient indefinitely, while your own priorities are delayed or ignored. Unpleasant feelings about situations where you are regularly taking care of other people's needs. Looking after people you think are lazy. Looking after other people when you feel you need to be looked after. Feeling that you are in a subservient position or experiencing disparate roles.
Example: A woman dreamed of being a waitress for her husband. In waking life, she felt her time off work for her pregnancy was being wasted on looking after her husband's needs full-time instead of taking time off for her pregnancy. She resented looking after her husband. In this case, dreaming of being a waitress may have reflected her feelings of resentment, exhaustion, and lack of appreciation for being placed in a one-sided caregiving role, where her own needs for rest, care, and emotional support during pregnancy were being ignored.
